Guilin Photography Tours

We provide 1-1 guiding Guilin photography tours.

Our tour can extend to the whole of Guilin, Yangshuo, Longji terraced fields or other ancient towns and villages.

We organize authentic family visits, opportunities for sunrise or sunset shots from little-known mountains, or unique mountain reflection shots from hidden riverside vantage points.

Top Things to Know

Local Experts in Tailor-making and Guiding

We are photographers. We understand how important this photo tour is to you. We shall be happy to start at 3 am, climb the mountain at 4:30 am for sunrise, and get down from the sunset mountain at 8 pm.

Our guides use Nikon, Canon and Sony full-frame cameras. We can arrange photo guides according to your taste. We can instruct you on camera settings and compositions.

Some of our guides go to the mountains 100+ times every year, and meet the cormorant fishermen once or twice a week. We know the sunrise angles at different seasons, so we go to different locations to capture the most photogenic moments.

"It's a great mixture of people and landscape... Mercier really know about what you need for taking great shots."
